watching the Julian Hall interview… man I’m excited for the coming cohort very feel good, seems like they are a cohesive unit, getting mentored, but also confident in themselves… a team I think it’s going to be easy to be proud of and we’ll be glad represent us

such solidly plausible explanatory origin. This kind of prompt specifically. “Texts show Smith was in Atlanta on this date just after … which was the day after…. very unusual for Smith to be in Atlanta on that day, no public appearances…” That’s exactly the kind of response an AI could give

posted by @reedreports.bsky.social over on Twitter, this is super cool. Alexander Calder’s “Mountains and Clouds” is being made whole again in the Hart Senate Office Building: the “clouds” were removed in 2014 over structural concerns, but today are being rehung above the “mountains.”

So here’s the thing about the jawbone at Blessed Fulton Sheen’s beatification: it’s awesome It’s awesome and I’ll tell you why. Because we humans still believe in magic and we lie about it. but a jaw in a golden box is at least honest. Hear me out 1/5

Missouri will use the 2022 map. SCOTUS grants an emergency stay of the Eight Circuit's permanent injunction requiring the 2025 map in 5 page per curiam opinion. The MO Supreme Court unanimously ruled that the 2025 map was not and never has been Missouri law. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...

Here's a graphic that does a better job of conveying the point than my original post: even by the (insane) standards of the first Trump administration, #SCOTUS is receiving—and granting—a truly unprecedented number of applications for emergency relief from the federal government:
A chart that shows the number of emergency applications filed and granted by the Supreme Court during each presidency dating back to George W. Bush, with the data annualized to show the far-higher frequencies since 2017, but especially during the Trump I and Trump II administrations.

Today, the Senate defeated a resolution to remove U.S. forces from hostilities with Iran by a vote of 50-49. The House passed the resolution in July. A separate War Powers measure was passed by the House last week. Here's what you need to know.

Incredible. First Secretary Mullin claimed that DHS had identified 15,903 noncitizens on Nevada’s voter roll. Then DHS officials told a skeptical Nevada, no no no, that’s just people we flagged. Here are the names of 185 people we KNOW aren’t citizens. All 185 were citizens. DHS got 100% wrong.
When the Department of Homeland Security sent Nevada a list of 185 names last month that it claimed identified noncitizens who had been improperly allowed to register to vote, state election officials got to work.
On Tuesday, the state sent a strongly worded rebuke to the federal government: Every single person on the list was a lawful citizen.
"As for the 185 individuals, our records indicate that they were citizens," Greg D. Ott, a deputy attorney general in Nevada, wrote, according to a copy of a letter sent to Department of Homeland Security officials obtained through open records requests.
"You have provided nothing of substance to suggest otherwise."Following the meeting, Ms. Vogt sent a clarifying email to Nevada officials. "I also wanted to be sure I clarified that we did not reduce the 15,903 to 185," she wrote. "We've manually reviewed some of the 15,903 and confirmed 185 are not U.S. Citizens."
Now, Nevada officials are saying even that 185 number is wrong. They also took issue with a letter D.H.S. sent them in early September, in which the agency reiterated its initial claims about nearly 16,000 noncitizens on the rolls and pressured state officials to review each case in a letter to Nevada officials in early September.

TIL that in 1872, presidential candidate Horace Greeley died after Election Day but before the Electoral College voted. Which made Congress have to answer a novel question: Does an electoral vote for a dead presidential candidate count? 🧵1/5

The blue tint in Ozark, however is not accurate. Rural Missouri is not like that. Because Ozark was filmed in Atlanta. Our trees aren’t like that - that kind of open pine forest. Used to be that way 150 years ago. But today it’s very closed, dense, tangled, shady oak / maple hardwood
